Kitchen lights? Ah, something I can try and help with!
Are they striplights? If so, have you replaced the starter motors? Next to the tubes, that's the most common problem and a lot of people don't realise there's something else there to check. Also make sure that the pins are fully engaged as some style lights need twisting clockwise before the tubes will fully lock in.
Failing that, check your fuseboard and see if any of the switches are down or, if it's the older type of fuseboard, check if one of the buttons has popped out or if any of the fusewire is broken (the lights will be on one of the 5amp circuits). If that's not the problem then yeah, you have a wiring issue.
